EXCEPTIONS NOTED.

Cherchez la femma; but there’s generally a man in the row also. Little pitchers have great ears; but nothing to their mouths 1 There’s no nse In crying for spilt milk, but there’s a lot of solid comfort in it There’s room at the top, but of what use Is that If there is none along the road up? Haste makes waste maybe; yet somehow you seldom see an ex-hasder In the almshouse. He that by the plow doth thrive Is the man who’s best at. getting others to do all the work. Waste may sometimes make want but the extravagant Four Hundred are not all out at elbows-yet Intrigue or religion might have been the only resource foi* old women In other times, but now there’s the ballot When Poverty enters the door, Love may fly out of the chimney; but he doesn’t always stay contented In Fifth avenne palaces. Culture, having licked the whole world Into shape, has at last attacked the dervil himself. But the devil will stand p. good deal of licking. Democratic good times are com* itg along.
